Pines have a two-year reproductive cycle. At the beginning of the 1st year the ovulate strobili (future seed cones) are pollinated, but the female gametophyte inside each ovule doesn't become mature until the following spring. That's when fertilization happens, and then it takes another year for the seeds to mature. This is a new ovulate strobilus of eastern white pine, seen today, May 27, 2018, in Miami County, Ohio, USA.

Himalayan pine, with its long green needles, is a stark contrast to our native Scots Pine which has much shorter and darker green needles.

Okefenokee Swamp Park, Waycross, Georgia.
The next day it was still raining, and it rained all day. Normal people would have stayed indoors.
But no ... we drove up to Georgia, to the Okefenokee Swamp.
The entrance also included a little train ride around the swamp. Again ... just for the two of us.
Pinus serotina, the pond pine, marsh pine or pocosin pine, is a pine tree found along the Southeastern portion of the Atlantic coastal plain of the United States, from southern New Jersey south to Florida and west to southern Alabama. This pine often has a crooked growth pattern and an irregular top and grows up to 21 metres (69 ft) high, rarely to 29 metres (95 ft).
The needles are in bundles of three or four. The almost round cones are 5–8 cm long with small prickles on the scales. Its cones are usually serotinous, requiring fire to open. The pond pine is found in wet habitats near ponds, bays, swamps, and pocosins. Often found among long leaf pines due to their high flammability and the pond pines need for fire to germinate.
The species name serotina is derived from the persistently unopened cones that may remain closed for several years before they release their seeds; the opening is often in response to forest fires.
The palms are something else entirely.
